Review: WHO DONE IT? (Oliver Tallec)

"One page of pleasure after another."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
3.7 Stars from 27 GoodReaders

Now here is a book for your school book basket.  Great Fun.

First, this is a tall, thin book that you read sideways.  The pages are paired and at the top of the first page is a question such as "Who didn't get enough sleep?" or "Who ate all the jam?"

Beneath that text is a line up of possible culprits, followed on the page below by yet another line of possibilities.

What makes these vignettes so engaging are the expressions and activities of the characters.  Each child or critter bears little similarity to his buddies. They might be wearing a mask or banging on a drum. They might be smiling or looking annoyed.

AND the fun is that kids will have to look at each character and determine whether they look like the 'guilty' party.

This is a fun little book.  The kids I've shared this with love that you have to turn the book sideways, and they get quiet --at least for a while-- as they analyze what's going on with each character.

You can share WHO DONE IT? with a fairly wide age range: 5 or 6 and under.

It's a good way for young children to get in some practice in identifying expressions. And overall the book is filled with goofy kid-friendly humor.  Can you figure out Who Forgot their swimsuit?
